Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 1995
(1) General
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of LecTec Corporation (the "Company"), LecTec International
Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary, and Natus Corporation, a fifty-one
percent owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim financial statements are
unaudited and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (which
consist only of adjustments of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair
presentation of results for the periods presented. Results for interim periods
are not necessarily indicative of results for the year.
(2) Stock Dividend
During June 1994, the Board of Directors declared a 5% stock
dividend payable to shareholders of record as of July 15, 1994 which was paid on
July 29, 1994. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for all
periods presented has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the stock
dividends.
(3) Natus Corporation
The Company began consolidating Natus' results of operations
effective April 1, 1994. The Company has restated the Consolidated Financial
Statements to reflect Natus, using the equity method, for all fiscal 1994
quarters prior to April 1, 1994.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Product sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1995 were $4,232,402
as compared with $2,252,783 for fiscal 1994. Product sales for the first nine
months of fiscal 1995 were $10,822,734 as compared with $7,849,547 for fiscal
1994. Product sales, for the third quarter, increased by 87.9%, reflecting
growth in all product groups over the same period of fiscal 1994. Conductive
products, the Company's largest product group, increased by 26.4% over the same
period of last year. Medical tape sales increased 101.1% primarily due to the
receipt of a major tape converter order. Therapeutic product sales experienced a
382.8% increase over the same period last year, mainly due to the increased
sales of the analgesic patch through Natus Corporation. Product sales, for the
first nine months, increased by 37.9% as compared to the first nine months
period of fiscal 1994, primarily as a result of the growth in our Conductive and
Therapeutic product groups plus the inclusion of sales of non analgesic patch
Natus products.
The Company had no contract research revenues for the third
quarter of fiscal 1995 or the first nine months of fiscal 1995. In fiscal 1994,
the Company had no contract research revenues for the third quarter and $15,275
for the nine months period.
Gross profit as a percent of total revenues for the third quarter
of fiscal 1995 was 41.0% as compared to 33.9% for the third quarter of fiscal
1994. For the first nine months, gross profit as a percent of total revenues was
40.5% in fiscal 1995 and 38.0% in fiscal 1994. The increase in gross profit
percent for the quarter and first nine months reflects the impact of the
consolidation of higher margin Natus product sales with LecTec.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the third
quarter, as a percentage of total revenues, were 24.4% and 18.6% for fiscal 1995
and 1994, respectively. For the first nine months, selling, general, and
administrative expenses, as a percentage of total revenues, were 25.0% and 15.0%
for fiscal 1995 and 1994, respectively. The increase in expenses for fiscal 1995
for the three month and nine month periods are primarily related to the
consolidation of Natus with LecTec for fiscal 1995, the higher selling costs
associated with the Natus direct selling organization and the inclusion of
goodwill amortization related to the acquisition of Natus Corporation.
Research and development expenses for the third quarter, as a
percentage of total revenues, were 10.6% and 15.5% for fiscal 1995 and 1994,
respectively. Actual expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 1995 increased to
$449,235 from $349,385 in 1994. For the first nine months, research and
development expenses as a percent of total revenues, were 12.4% and 13.1%,
respectively. Actual expenses for the first nine months of fiscal 1995 increased
to $1,337,607 from $1,032,133 in 1994. LecTec has been aggressively moving
forward with the research and development of a non-nicotine active ingredient
for alleviating symptoms of tobacco withdrawal. The Company completed the Phase
I clinical trials during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994. Due to encouraging
findings on safety and toxicity levels, plus preliminary indications of efficacy
from the initial clinical trials, the Company commenced the Phase II clinical
study in September 1994. In December 1994, McNeil Consumer Products, a division
of Johnson & Johnson, decided not to exercise its option to proceed with the
research, development and licensing agreement previously signed with LecTec
Corporation, thereby relinquishing all licensing agreement rights to the
non-nicotine smoking cessation product. The McNeil action provides LecTec with
the opportunity to establish a new marketing alliance under which the Company
retains maximum rights to the product. In March, 1995, the Company released
preliminary findings from an ongoing study by the Addiction Research Center of
the National Institute of Drug Abuse which found that the non-nicotine smoking
cessation product has a very low potential for addictiveness. Furthermore, in
April, 1995, the Company announced completion of the Phase II clinical study and
results which indicate the non-nicotine smoking cessation product has been found
to be effective at assisting smokers to quit by alleviating tobacco withdrawal
symptoms. The Company has a strategy of developing therapeutic products
internally through clinical trials to market-ready status. Although the Company
will continue to seek strong partners to market selected therapeutic products
and help defray development costs, this in-house strategy permits LecTec to
negotiate with potential partners from a position of strength. The Company
anticipates research and development expenses will continue in the range of 10%
to 15% of revenues. The Company will also continue product development in the
Conductive and Medical Tape product groups.
Other income (expense) decreased in the third quarter of fiscal
1995 to $15,572 from $22,471 in the third quarter of 1994. Other income
(expense) for the first nine months of fiscal 1995 decreased to $65,697 from
$115,043 in the same period of fiscal 1994. The decline resulted from the
liquidation of short-term investments to finance the acquisition of a new
medical tape production line and a new therapeutic production line plus the
increases in receivables and inventory necessary to support the growing
business.
Earnings before income taxes and equity in losses of
unconsolidated subsidiary for the third quarter, as a percent of total revenues,
increased from 0.8% in fiscal 1994 to 6.3% in fiscal 1995. Earnings before
income taxes and equity in losses of unconsolidated subsidiary for the third
quarter were $17,234 and $266,759 in 1994 and 1995, respectively. For the first
nine months earnings before income taxes and equity in losses of unconsolidated
subsidiary as a percent of total revenues decreased from 11.3% in fiscal 1994 to
3.8% in fiscal 1995. Earnings before income taxes and equity in losses of
unconsolidated subsidiary for the first nine months were $887,610 and $407,198
in 1994 and 1995, respectively. The increase in earnings before income taxes and
equity in losses of unconsolidated subsidiary for the quarter was the result of
increased sales, the inclusion of Natus Corporation sales and increased margins
which were offset to a lesser degree by increased selling, general and
administrative expenses associated with the inclusion of Natus Corporation and
increased research and development expenses. The decrease in earnings before
income taxes and equity in losses of unconsolidated subsidiary for the nine
months was the result of significantly reduced margins on medical tape plus the
increased selling, general and administrative expenses associated with the
inclusion of Natus Corporation and increased research and development expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has used internally generated cash to support growth
and capital spending. The Company continues to have an unused $1,000,000 line of
credit available to meet current operating requirements. The Company estimates
that capital expenditures will exceed $1,300,000 for equipment and capital
improvements during fiscal 1995. The Company continues to have a strong Balance
Sheet with no long term debt and a current ratio at the end of the third quarter
of fiscal 1995 of 3.79 as compared to 7.45 at the end of the same period of
1994. Working capital, at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 1995, decreased
to $4,401,270 from $5,957,622 at the end of the same period of fiscal 1994.
